“That's not a knife... THAT's a knife” is one of the most memorable quotes of the 1986 movie ‘Crocodile Dundee’ (actor Paul Hogan). The quote originates from a scene where Mick and Sue come across a robber, who demands Mick’s wallet, while threatening him with a small switchblade. In response, Mick laughs him off, and pulls out a machete.
